Our Clients
Consulting Firms and the Private Sector 

We’ve helped hundreds of firms identify, vet, and hire experts for roles in international development. 

Government and Multilateral organizations

We’ve partnered with government agencies and institutions through BPAs and FWAs to support their staffing needs.

"DevelopmentPeople was a life-saver for us when we had a hard-to-fill position located outside of the U.S. We were unsuccessful in finding the right candidates using our own methods but once we engaged with DevelopmentPeople, they supported us right away. They were very quick and responsive to our feedback – each candidate they sent us was closer and closer to what we were looking for. In the end, we moved forward with formal interviews for five of the candidates they provided. After working with DevelopmentPeople, we contracted them to work on two additional positions for us and will be keeping them in mind for more hard-to-fill positions for us!"
